Hi Betsy! Matt keeps me update on you and your family because he is the LJ reader.
and Hi Vonnie -- you did used to post more...
I like the fact that this thread has an end date ... because we can have this much fun next year. and instead of lurkers they can rename them selves to holiday posters!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Betsy! Good to see your pixels! So sorry to hear about your and W's migraines.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
She's Australian.
That's interesting, the only Boucher I've come across pronounced it the same way.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
OK, Buffista map question:
You supposed to be the blue balloon, right? So why is there another in Colombia? Does my evil twin live(s?) there?
Also, I still want to know who's the Syrian Buffista, very much.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
Yes, I can see the name - but it still doesn't tell me who this person is.

There are two Buffistas on the map in S. Africa. I wonder if they know each other.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm not sure why you're seeing a blue pin at all, Shir. I don't.
And we have to respect the wishes for privacy of the lurkers that are keeping quiet.
